Hi, for the moment, I had to switch back to fglrx. My system was not usable anymore, because of spurious misbehavior and some really bad crashes (only if I was working with X).
As the aforementioned issues remain, but the GPU lockup of this bug report is "kind of" solved now, what has to happen next? Is this misbehavior still related to the kernel, or more related to some userspace component, for example mesa? At least, graphics cards equipped with a BARTS LE chipset (all HD 6790) seem not to be supported now by the free driver. Perhaps that should be stated somewhere. I'm looking forward to help you with further testing!
